Still, 12- to 14-pound turkeys remain the biggest holiday seller, Sechler said. That may be because some millennials are still going to Moms, he said.

Haven’t they done ENOUGH damage to our culture with their Man Buns, Hipster Beards and obsession with craft beer? ;)

smaller turkeys have a lot less calories than the big artificially plumped birds.

tiny turkeysYea, I think I'll get a chicken and tell folks it's an environmentally sensitive turkey.
Global warming causes smaller chickens.

No they are not fat like that because they are penned up.. they are bred to be that rediculously large. Selective breeding has produced turkeys so rediculously large breasted they cant even reproduce naturally...
While you are free to criticize the industrial farming of chickens, they arent fat like that because they are penned. They are fat like that because they are genetic freaks bred to be that way.

Sorry turkeys. Not chickens.
To: Diana in Wisconsin
“[G]rowing guilt over wasteful leftovers,” Ha! The leftovers are usually the best part of the whole weekend. So many good things can be made from them. Even though single, I still prefer a 12 - 14 lb. bird because of the great leftovers.
To: angry elephant
Leftovers, especially turkey sandwiches with cranberry sauce mayo and stuffing, and making Turkey Soup from the carcass are what it’s all about in MY family. :)

To heck with turkey. Bone in shank ham is what I am serving. I love the leftovers a lot more - split pea soup, scalloped ham and potatoes, etc. No tiny turkey for us!

I’ll avoid the obvious WKRP joke.

Millenials are also “Disrupting” language with ridiculous use of the word “Disruption”.
How many people on my LinkedIn are “Influencers” ?
Everyone. I need to invent a buzzword.
